Oversized massive break apart dolly

ABSTRACT

An oversized, break apart dolly for picking up and lifting massive articles such as snowmobiles. The dolly stands more than six feet tall. A typical operator of the dolly brings his arms over his head to reach the handle of the dolly, and then uses his weight to draw the handle down to in turn lift up the other end of the dolly that is engaging and lifting the heavy article. The oversized dolly can be adjusted in height and in width to receive articles of different height and width. The pick up of the dolly (the mechanism that engages the article) can be adjusted toward and away from a central axis of the dolly to be positioned as desired on the heavy article. The oversized dolly may be broken down to a relatively compact size by the legs being removably engagable with the handle, by the pick ups being removably engagable from the legs, and by the legs themselves being broken down into two pieces which are reassembled when needed.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates generally to a dolly, particularly to aoversized and massive dolly, and specifically to an oversized andmassive dolly that may be disassembled for shipment, storage and safety.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A soccer field is dangerous because it has two large dangerous objectsthat are attractive for a child: the soccer goals. A child may climb upto the crossbar or jump up to the crossbar. The soccer goal, if notproperly anchored to the ground, may then tip under even the relativelysmall weight of a child, whereupon the crossbar may pin the child to theground or hit and pin other children as it tips and topples.

Like soccer goals, large man size tools are dangerous. One such tool isthe oversized and massive dolly that is used to lift snowmobiles. Thedolly includes a handle having a crossbar. The large dolly is attractiveto children 1) who would enjoy jumping up to the crossbar to therebyimmediately and dangerously tilt the dolly and/or 2) who would enjoyjumping up to the crossbar to bring the dolly into position to wheel oneof their friends.

Present dollies have handles that are removable and pick up means thatare removable, but these dollies remain potentially deadly for childrenbecause the dolly remains “loaded.” In other words, the legs remainassembled and each of the legs may be used as a cart or in the nature ofa wheelbarrow. Or the legs remain only one step removed from being usedtogether as a complete working toy having two wheels, with or withoutthe pick up means.

Without improvement, the present snowmobile dolly is readily availableto children in the summer when skateboarding and roller bladingactivities, are in full swing, exactly when their father works on hissnowmobile or moves the snowmobile from place to place in the yard or toand from the garage.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

A feature of the present invention is an oversized and massive dollythat when in operation is more than six feet tall and that when brokendown for shipment or storage or safety fits in a rectangular boxmeasuring 26 inches by 40 inches by 7 inches.

Another feature of the present invention is the provision in anoversized and massive dolly, of the legs being broken down into twononoperable pieces that are removably engagable to each other.

Another feature of the present invention is the provision in anoversized and massive dolly, of a pair of legs that may be disassembledfor shipment or storage or safety and then reassembled for operation,wherein the legs maintain sufficient strength when reassembled to pickup even heavy articles such as snowmobiles.

Another feature of the present invention is the provision in anoversized and massive dolly, of the upper and lower portions of the legsbeing fixedly engagable to each other at different locations from eachother such that the legs and thus the dolly as a whole is adjustable inheight and is therefore adjustable in the amount of leverage that can beprovided to pick up an article.

Another feature of the present invention is the provision in anoversized and massive dolly, of each of the two pieces of thedisassembled leg measuring between about 25% and about 75% of thedistance of the leg as a whole when it is assembled.

Another feature of the present invention is the provision in anoversized and massive dolly, of each of the two pieces of thedisassembled leg measuring between about 40% and about 60% of thedistance of the leg as a whole when it is assembled.

Another feature of the present invention is the provision in anoversized and massive dolly, of the lower portion of the leg being inone piece where the wheel is engaged, and wherein the lower portion ofthe legs includes two linear portions traveling away from the wheel andwherein the linear portions are disposed at less than a 90 degree anglerelative to each other so as to provide for unitary leverage on eitherside of the wheel and between the handle and the pick up.

Another feature of the present invention is the provision in anoversized and massive dolly, of the upper and lower portions of the legsbeing engagable to each other with an external connection.

Another feature of the present invention is the provision in anoversized and massive dolly, of the upper and lower portions of the legsbeing engagable to each other with an internal connection.

An advantage of the present invention is safety. Like many large tools,the present invention is attractive to children. One featurecontributing to the advantage of safety is that the legs may bedisassembled. The chance that any part of the dolly may be used as a toyis thereby minimized. Another feature contributing to the safetyadvantage is that when the legs are disassembled, when the handle isremoved from the legs, and when the pick up means is removed, the dollymay be placed in a smaller box that is more convenient—and thereforemore safe—for the father to store in an out-of-the-way location in thegarage. Without disassembly of the legs, each of the legs as a whole isan odd object that takes up a relatively great amount of space thatproves difficult for the father to tuck away.

Another advantage of the present invention is that the amount ofleverage required to lift a heavy article may be adjusted. By providinga connection between the upper and lower portions of the legs that mayfix the upper and lower portions at varying distances from each other,the height of the crossbar (or gripping portion of the handle) may beraised or lowered. A taller woman may wish to have greater leverage forher snowmobile. A shorter stronger man may desire a shorter and moreaccessible crossbar.

Another advantage is cost. The present invention is relativelyinexpensive to manufacture, ship and store. The present inventionfurther minimizes the potential health costs of accidents to childrenand the potential health cost of back injuries to adults because theamount of leverage required may be customized to the adult using thedolly.

Another advantage is that the dolly may be customized for the articlethat is being picked up and carried. Since the legs are adjustable inheight, taller and smaller objects may be received within the dolly.

DESCRIPTION

As shown in FIG. 1, the present oversized and massive dolly 10 generallyincludes a rigid metal frame 12 having a handle 14, a pair of legs 16and a pair of pick ups 18. The dolly 10 further includes a pair ofwheels 20 and a strap 22. The dolly 10 is an oversized and massive dollyfor picking up and carrying relatively large and relatively heavyarticles or objects such as the snowmobile 24. With the snowmobile, thepick ups 18 engage a frame portion 26 of the snowmobile 24 and the strap22 engages another frame portion 28 of the snowmobile 24. The dolly 10lifts the snowmobile 24 entirely off the ground such that the skis 30and belt drive 32 of the snowmobile are lifted entirely off the ground.The pick ups 18 are preferably placed at or close to the center ofbalance of the snowmobile 24, which has an engine under the hood 34.

More particularly, as shown in FIGS. 2-5 with particular reference toFIG. 3, the handle 14 includes a square tubular portion 36 with a pairof receptor ends or connections 38 for receiving cooperating portions ofthe legs 16. Pins 40, such as set screws, threadingly engage the squaretubular portion 36 for being driven into outer surfaces of the legs 16for fixing the legs 16 in the handle 14. Via the pins 40, the legs 16may be set at incrementally varying distances from each other such thatthe dolly 10 may pick up and carry relatively narrow or relatively broadarticles. The handle 14 further includes a U-shaped portion 42 rigidlyengaged, such as by welding, to the ends or end portions 38 of thesquare tubular portions 36 such that the handle 14 is one-piece. TheU-shaped portion 42 includes a gripping portion or crossbar 44 that isgrabbed by the hand to pick up and wheel an article. The crossbar 44lies six feet, three inches from a surface on which the wheels 20 restand provides a leverage of great amount relative to the square tubularportion 36, which is inoperable as a hand tool to pick up a heavyarticle as a snowmobile since the square tubular portion 36 is not setsufficiently high for the leverage that is required to pick up asnowmobile.

As further shown in FIGS. 2-5 with particular reference to FIG. 3, eachof the legs 16 is broken down into an upper leg portion or piece 46 anda lower leg portion or piece 48. Portion 46 is a square tubular L-shapedpiece having a brace 49 rigidly welded to and between linear sections ofthe L-shaped piece 46. Portion 46 includes a male section 50 insertableinto female receptor end 38 of the handle 14 and fixed therein by pin40. Square tubular male section 50 is fabricated to fit with minimalplay into square tubular end 38 so as to minimize rotation between thetwo parts. Opposite of male section 50, portion 46 further includes afemale receptor or connection 52. Female receptor 52 is a square tubularpiece that is rigidly fixed on an end of portion 46 with set screws 54,as shown in FIG. 7. Or if desired, female receptor 52 may be welded tosuch end of the portion 46. In either case, the two pieces 46 and 52engage each other with minimal play so as to minimize rotationtherebetween. Female receptor 52 removably engages the other portion 48of the leg 16.

As shown in FIGS. 2-5 with particular reference to FIG. 3, the other legportion 48 is a square tubular V-shaped piece having a brace 56 rigidlywelded to and between linear sections of the V-shaped piece 48. V-shapedlower leg portion 48 includes a male section 58 insertable into femalereceptor 52 of the upper leg portion 46. The square tubular male section58 and female receptor 52 are fabricated to fit to each other withminimal play so as to minimize rotation between the two parts. As shownin FIG. 7, an absolute end 60 of the upper leg portion 46 abuts anabsolute end 62 of the lower leg portion 48. However, via the pair ofset screws 54 of the upper leg portion 46 and a pair of set screws 64 ofthe lower leg portion 48, the absolute ends 60 and 62 may be fixed apartfrom each other so as to lengthen the legs 16, thereby increasing thedistance of the crossbar 44 from the floor, which in turn increases theamount of leverage available for lifting a heavy article. Suchlengthening or shortening of the legs 16 further increases the height ofportion 36 and the respective horizontally extending male portions 50such that the dolly 10 may receive relatively tall or relatively shortobjects between the legs 16 and underneath portions 36 and 50 and braces49. Opposite of the male portion 58, the lower leg portion 48 includes apick up connection or receptor 66 and the pick up 18 which is engaged inthe receptor 66. Receptor 66 is welded to an end of lower leg portion48. Receptor 66 is cylindrical and tubular. Pick up 18 includes acylindrical tube 68 selected to slidingly engage the receptor 66 withminimal play transversely of the axis along which the pick up 18 slides.Pick up 18 further includes a pair of rubber or elastomeric ribbed pads70, 72 (as shown in FIG. 6) that are mounted on the cylindrical tube 68.The resilient pads 70, 72 directly engage the frame portion 26 of thesnowmobile. The pads 70 and 72 fit on the tube 68 with some friction.The pads 70 and 72 rotate on the tube 68 independently of each other.Opposite of the pads 70, 72, the outer end of the tube 68 includes holesfor a cotter pin 74 (as shown in FIG. 6) so that the pick up 18 does notinadvertently slide off of the leg 16. The pick ups 18 of the respectivelegs 16 may be drawn to and away from each other so as to fit relativelywide articles or snowmobiles and so as to fit relatively narrow articlesor snowmobiles. The lower leg portion 48 further includes an axle mount76 that takes the form of a capped cylindrical tube. An axle 78 of thewheel 20 is rotatably engaged in the mount 76.

As to each of the legs 16 as a whole, portion 50 is a proximal end ofleg 16 and pick up receptor 66 is a distal end. Leg 16 runs from portion50 to and beyond axle 78 of the wheel 20 to the receptor 66. Upper legportion 46 is removably engagable to lower leg portion 48 via theconnection 52.

As a whole, leg 16 stands about 40 inches high when measured from thealtitude of the receptor 66 to the altitude of portion 50. Along itslength, upper leg portion 46 runs about 30 inches. Along its length,lower leg portion 48 runs about 30 inches. Accordingly, along its lengthas a whole, leg 16 runs about 60 inches. To render leg 16 inoperable asa toy for children, it is preferable that each of the pieces or portions46 and 48 runs from about 25% to about 75% of the length of the leg 16and more preferably about 40% to about 60% of the length of the leg 16.

It can be appreciated that male portion 58 of the lower leg portion 48is linear and runs toward the wheel 20 and that the lower leg portion 48includes a second linear portion 80 that runs from distal end orreceptor 66 towards the wheel 20. These two linear portions 58 and 80are set at less than a 90 degree angle relative to each other to provideleverage for the dolly 10. As best shown in FIG. 5, when the dolly 10 isat rest, it can be seen that linear portion 80 is generally parallel tothe surface on which the dolly 10 is placed, that linear portion 58 andmuch of the leg 16 is set at less than a 90 degree angle to linearportion 80, that the legs 16 are on one side of the axle mount 76 andthus axle 78, and that the handle 14 extends from such side of the axleor pivot point 76 to the other side of the axle or pivot point 76 to therelatively high crossbar 44 or point 44 where leverage is applied sixfeet and three inches above the surface on which the dolly 10 is placed.Such a “Z” shape to the dolly 10 provides a great amount of leverage.

Whereas FIG. 7 shows an external connection 52, FIG. 8 shows an internalconnection 82 that includes an internal square tubular linear piece 84slideably engagable within portion 50 of lower leg portion 48 andslidingly engagable within a like portion 86 of upper leg portion 46.With the embodiment shown in FIG. 8, the female connection 52 ispreferably removed. A pair of set screws 88 and a second pair of setscrews 90 fix the internal piece 84 in place and thereby fix the upperand lower leg portions 46 and 48 to each other. Portion 50 includes apair of second holes 92 for another pair of set screws, if desired, andportion 86 includes a pair of second holes 94 for another pair of setscrews. With internal piece 84, the upper and lower leg portions 46 and48 may be set to abut each other or may be set at varying distances fromeach other to increase the length of leg 16 and thereby to increase theamount of leverage. Also, the dolly 10 may accommodate articles ofgreater size because portions 50 and 36 are set at a greater distancefrom the pickups 18.

It should be noted that via portions 50 and set screws 40, the legs 16may be set at incrementally varying distances from each other. Further,via the external connection 52 or the internal connection 82, leg 16 maybe set at incrementally varying heights. Also, via receptor 66 and itscooperating pick up tube 68 with fits with some friction in receptor 66,the pick ups 18 may be drawn to and away from each other to be set atincrementally varying distances from each other to engage relativelybroad or relatively narrow articles.

It should be noted that crossbar or handle distal portion 44 ispreferably between about six feet and about ten feet from a surface onwhich the wheels 20 rest and more preferably between about six feet andeight feet from a surface on which the wheels 20 rest.

It can be appreciated that dolly 10 may pick up and carry a great numberof articles. One such article is the snowmobile. Another such article isthe massive tote bag used in manufacturing plants to transport objectsfrom site to site. With the leg 16 having external connection 52 or theinternal connection 84, the present dolly 10 may carry between about 300pounds and about 1000 pounds. A typical snowmobile weighs between about400 pounds and about 600 pounds, although some extreme lightweightsnowmobiles do exist and although some heavy duty or older snowmobilesdo exist that weigh more than 600 pounds.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the heavy duty strap 22 includes a hook 96for engaging snowmobile frame portion 28 and a buckle 98 for forming aloop 100 for engaging the crossbar 44 of the dolly 10. The strap 22further includes a handle 102 for drawing the crossbar 44 down. Thebuckle 98 may be alternately open and closed while the strap 22 isshortened via the handle 102 so as to bring the crossbar 44 and the rearend of the snowmobile toward each other.

As shown in FIG. 6, the dolly 10 when disassembled fits in a rectangularbox 104 measuring 26 inches wide by 40 inches across by 7 inches deep.The handle 14 has been separated from the upper leg portion 46, whichhas been separated from the lower leg portion 48, which has beenseparated from the pickup means 18. When re-assembled, the crossbar 44is about six feet, three inches when measured at a 90 degree angle fromthe surface on which the wheels 20 rest. When re-assembled, the legs 16are about 39 inches apart at lower leg portions 58.

It should be noted that each of the wheels 20 is tubeless, is filledwith air under pressure, and includes a tread.

It should further be noted that external connection or splice 52 andthat the internal connection or splice 84 can be variously fixed to theupper and lower leg portions 46 and 48. For example, splice 52 or splice84 can be permanently fixed, such as by welding, to one of the legportions 46, 48, and the other of the leg portions 46, 48 can beremovably fixed, such as with set screws or through bolts, to the splice52 or splice 84. Such through bolts extend through both the splice 52,84 and the respective leg portions 46, 48. Also if desired, throughbolts, instead of set screws, may be used at both ends of the splices52, 84, to fix the upper and lower leg portions 46 and 48 to each other.As with the set screws, a pair of through bolts running at right anglesto each other may be used at each of the ends of the splices 52, 84 suchthat four through bolts may be used with each of the splices 52, 84 tominimize any play among the upper leg portion 46, the lower leg portion48, and the splice that is used.

In operation, the dolly 10 is maneuvered so that the wheels 20 roll oneither side of the snowmobile 24 and so that the handle portion 36floats over a seat 106 of the snowmobile 24. Prior to the handle portion36 reaching a steering handlebar 108 of the snowmobile 24, the pick ups18 reach a location disposed outside of the frame portion 26. At thislocation, the dolly 10 is set on the ground, and the pick ups 18 areslid into the frame portions 26. The strap 22 is then engaged to theframe, portion 28 at the rear end of the snowmobile 24. The strap 22 isthen shortened incrementally by the buckle 98 to draw the crossbar 44and rear end of the snowmobile 24 toward each other. At some pointduring this process, or after the strap 22 has been tightenedsufficiently, the crossbar 44 may be drawn down and the snowmobile 24may be lifted entirely off the ground or surface so that the snowmobilemay be wheeled to another location. When being lifted and wheeled, acenter of balance of the snowmobile 24 may be over an axis defined bythe axles 78 of the wheels 20, or somewhat behind such an axis in thedirection of the strap 22. After being wheeled to the desired location,the crossbar 44 is slowly permitted to be raised by the weight of thesnowmobile 24 and the snowmobile 24 is thereby slowly lowered to theground. During such a lowering of the snowmobile 24, the buckle 98 maybe incrementally operated to lengthen the effective distance of thestrap 22. After the snowmobile 24 again rests on the ground or surface,the pick ups 18 may be drawn out a sufficient distance, so that thedolly 10 can be wheeled rearwardly out of position and away from thesnowmobile 24, whereupon the dolly 10 can be disassembled and placed inthe box 104 for storage and safety.

Thus since the invention disclosed herein may be embodied in otherspecific forms without departing from the spirit or generalcharacteristics thereof, some of which forms have been indicated, theembodiments described herein are to be considered in all respectsillustrative and not restrictive. The scope of the invention is to beindicated by the appended claims, rather than by the foregoingdescription, and all changes which come within the meaning and range ofequivalents of the claims are intended to be embraced therein.
